  1. Fountain Fill problem

    Gradients created in Corel are local and proprietary to Corel. They do not export gracefully. Neither do they import well. If you want to export something with a gradient out of Corel do it it as a bitmap or recreate it in whatever package is importing the file..
  2. Any news about OP?

    One can support an ailing colleague without appealing to imaginary friends, mysterious forces, and mythical energies at least as well and most likely better than those that seem to be constantly invoking these sorts of things. You used the term, you quantify it. Merely because you used the...
  3. Any news about OP?

    What, exactly, does that mean? What is the unit of measure of 'positive energy'? How is it measured? Either qualify and quantify 'positive energy' or admit that the term is meaningless.
  4. Printing and contour cutting from Corel x4

    The easiest way, more often than not, is to export out of Corel as a 150dpi RGB jpg. Import into Flexi, add the contour, print and cut. I do this all the time and seldom have problems. Adding the contour is usually simple. If its just a regular shape, like a rectangle, circle, oval, etc...
  5. Do you need the DOT COM?

    I would rather be beaten with chains than have a web presence, regardless of what characters might terminate it. I thoroughly enjoy being a Luddite in this regard. That notwithstanding, just what is the regulating authority, what are its powers, and what is its reach? I'm unclear as to...
  6. The Royal Wedding

    Not the point at all. You said that the monarch is hardly more than a title. I demonstrated that it was not. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-the-duties-of-the-british-monarch.htm Hardly a titular position regardless of who gets to make the most decisions.
  7. The Royal Wedding

    Not quite just a title. The queen, or king depending on just how the person might be equipped, of England is the head of state. This is an official and influential, and sometimes powerful, office. The prime minister is the chief executive. In the USofA both the head of state and the chief...
  8. Tell me what you think

    Anyone who would pay $400K for a gelding is dumber than a two dollar dog. A stallion? Maybe, depending on what it has done, what it can do, and from whence it came. A mare? A remote possibility roughly the same as the pope converting to Judaism coincident with a full planetary alignment, but...
  9. Tell me what you think

    Perhaps their quarter horses are some strange mutant breed, but my quarter horses, which I would put up against theirs any day of the week, certainly do. What they mean, or what I gather, is that in the ridiculous horse shows they attend they show what's commonly and derisively known as...
  10. Tell me what you think

    If that's not the same clip-art horse I've seen used endlessly on banners and other things it's a remarkable copy. You might try for something more original. Are they selling Relanders or are they selling quarter horses? Give 'Quarter Horses' the same weight as the outfit's name. At least...
  11. ink spots while printing

    You use a word in a context with which I am not familiar. 'Smoothers'. I can infer what you mean but I'm not certain. Could you please explain your usage of 'smoother'?
  12. Terminology & supplier?

    If they fasten in front they're generally called 'vests'. If they're pullover then they're called 'pinnies'.

    As happy as I am for the old curmudgeon, there is no miracle involved. Just beating long odds.
  14. Laminating by hand

  15. Whats up with this nozzle check?

    Perhaps, but the moving empty lines in the black and the crispness of the wrong color in the wrong spot, not for the full square, and different patterns in each square would not be consistent with cross-contamination. More likely a fouled encoder strip or some sort of electronic malfeasance.
  16. Grainy prints

    This is almost always a heat problem. Not enough of it. 60 degrees is, if not too cold at least on the cusp of being too cold. While you may have your printer's heaters cranked up like a blast furnace, the media has a certain thermal mass which must be raised to a proper temperature before...
  17. I think I know the answer...

    If you even think your blade is dull, change it. If you want to know if it's dull pull it out of the holder and look at it with a loupe. If the tip of the blade is rounded or chipped in the slightest, it's time to change blades. A sharp blade comes to a point. Anything less than a perfect point...
  18. Laminating by hand

    Clear Shield levels out quite nicely if, that's if, you mop it on just this side of dry brush. Use a foam brush, not a roller and certainly not a bristle brush. Thinning it to the consistency of whole milk helps a lot as well. When done properly you cannot tell the the finished produce ever had...
  19. Fellers

    Depends on what you mean by 'customer service'. If you mean dealing with your order in a workman-like manner, they're fine. If you mean having some knowledge of their products, they have none. If you know what you want, there's nothing wrong with Fellers. If you are in a quandary over the...
  20. Retractable stands and media

    It's not magic. The weight rating is the ounces per square yard. By definition an area of 13oz, 15oz, etc. weigh more than that same area in 10oz.
